The BIPOC-founded and veteran-owned True Made Foods rethinks how we approach our condiments and this is evident with its healthy mustard range, which is sweetened with veggies and not sugar. The motivation for this business came as founder Abraham Kamarck wanted to encourage his kid to eat healthier.
In its healthy mustard range, True Made Foods boasts a Classic American Yellow Mustard, a Bavarian-style Mustard, and a Honey Mustard. All of these recipes are Keto-friendly, gluten-free, and Paleo-certified. With the exception of the honey variety, they are also vegan. The Yellow Mustard is created with American-grown fruits and vegetables. Carrots and butternut squash contribute to the sweetness of the product. The Honey Mustard, on the other hand, is naturally sweetened with "actual honey and American-grown apples, carrots, and butternut squash."
